The most expensive bus pass you can buy on straeto.is costs nearly one and half million krona. This total arises if one searches for a pass which gives the bearer unlimited rides from the capital area to H\u00f6fn in Hornafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, and is good for nine months. A representative from Straeto says this is not a misprint.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

“This is just someone entering in the payment zone and the computer calculates the price and doesn’t stop calculating,” says Kolbeinn \u00d3ttarsson Propp\u00e9, as the exact price of the pass is 1,447,100 kronur. He says no rider has yet made use of the possibility of buying a bus pass at this price.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Those who buy such passes most often travel twice per day,” says Kolbeinn. “It’s not possible to take this route twice per day, unfortunately for Straeto’s finances. If everyone bought such an expensive pass it would be much easier to run the company.”<\/em><\/p>\n
